I've always believed in "Quality of Life", over "Quantity of Life". And reading stories like these gives me hope for the planet. I'm not sure we can handle 10 billion people living off of it simultaneously. Just look at all the problems we've got with only 7 billion and the upcoming food and resource shortages.
Smaller populations living great full lives is so much better than massive populations living terribly. Economically, investors don't like shrinking populations because they make their money from growth and consumerism, but environmentally this is wonderful news.
Looks like, in its own way, nature is starting to balance things out once again.
